Our Newest Location

We are pleased to announce the upcoming opening of or newest restaurant in Chapel Hill! The new Tobacco Road location will open in late October (or possibly early November) in the East 54 residential and retail center in Chapel Hill, minutes from the heart of downtown.

Our Chapel Hill restaurant will have the same local, made-from-scratch food found at both the Durham and Raleigh locations. In addition, we will have 25 beers on tap, including numerous local brews, and the signature sports viewing room featuring a wall of HDTVs. Just like in Durham and Raleigh, all the available sports packages can be found on the TVs.

Inspired by the unique sports climate of North Carolina and the “Tobacco Road” schools, the newest restaurant will be a great opportunity to become a part of Carolina-blue country. With our flagship location located blocks away from the NC State campus, our second minutes away from the Duke campus, the opening of the Chapel Hill Tobacco Road could not come at a better time or in a better place.

The Chapel Hill location will feature five different private dining rooms, with the capability to host private and semi-private events for parties of ten to 300. The restaurant is also capable of catering any event, both on- and off-site. 

Our newest space will feature two patios, where guests can lounge and enjoy their favorite dishes crafted to order by the Tobacco Road chef. One patio, with special indoor/outdoor capabilities, will overlook the Glen Lennox community and capture the hustle and bustle of the nearby college town. The other patio will be immersed in the East 54 community, adjacent to the amphitheatre and market square. For the biggest television events of the season, there will be a 100 inch projection screen on this patio. 

Tobacco Road’s goal is to bring something different to the town of Chapel Hill: a family restaurant using the best local ingredients, offering exemplary service in a comfortable and unique atmosphere. Each dish will be made to order, from fresh foods, and can meet all dietary needs. Open for lunch and dinner; our newest restaurant is going to be a great go-to spot for families, students, businesspeople and sports-fans alike.
